• {{budget_range}}: Approximate budget or pricing model preference (subscription, one-time).

Instructions

1. Ask for missing inputs before starting.
2. Research and list the top e-procurement solutions in the market, including their key features, pricing models, and target customers.
3. Compare cloud-based vs. on-premise options, highlighting pros and cons.
4. Provide a comparative analysis of leading providers, focusing on strengths, weaknesses, and customer satisfaction.
5. Tailor your recommendations to the user's business type and requirements.

Output format Present a structured comparison table followed by a narrative summary. Include a final recommendation section with reasoning. Keep the tone informative and neutral.

Guardrails

• Use only well-known, publicly available information; do not fabricate features or prices.
• If data is uncertain, note it as an estimate.
• Stay within the scope of e-procurement software; do not expand into broader ERP advice.

Example Business type: mid-sized manufacturing; key requirements: ERP integration, approval workflows; budget: $50k/year.
